NOTE
Added on October 18, 2004:Now that the new book - Memory
and
Identity : Conversation Between Millenia - allegedly by H.H.
John Paul II, is being prepared for an early 2005 launch, it is
imperative that those who seek the truth prayerfully review this
document issued 20 years ago.

The Book Crossing the Threshold of Hope

Has The Text Been Tampered With?

A Close Look At One Possible, Yet Not
The Original, Purpose Of This
Book

December 18, 1994 + Feast of The
Expectation of Mary

Statement of Position:

It is not the intent of this work to
discredit in any way, directly
or indirectly, any statement legitimately made by H.H. John
Paul II.

The responsibility of any possible error
that may be uncovered,
could
be assigned to the translators, editors, publishers, printers and/or
those in the Vatican Complex who attended to the
details of the publishing of this book. Never, under any circumstances,
will miguel of Portugal impute such responsibility upon His Holiness,
John Paul II, the true and last
Successor of Peter.

Quotations were translated into English
by The M+G+R Foundation
since
the English version of the book was not available to us in Portugal.

Issue Under Consideration:

Chapter 20 - On the fall of Communism

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Fátima

The Fátima requests and
prophecies regarding Russia and the
triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary follow:

To prevent this, I shall come
to ask for the
consecration of Russia
to my Immaculate Heart, and the Communion of Reparation on the First
Saturday. If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and
there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the
world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be
martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations
will be annihilated. In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The
Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she will be converted,
and a period of Peace will be granted to the world.

The original documentation in Portuguese
in Sister Lucia's own
handwriting with the appropriate translations and references, may be
found in Note (1).

Plans of the Enemies of H.H. John
Paul II, thus, of God

a. Discredit completely all Marian
apparitions, thus,
neutralizing the Heavenly Warnings being given to us by the Virgin Mary
since the early 19th Century in preparation for the Second Coming of
Our Lord Jesus Christ.

b. Remove John Paul II from the
Chair of Peter and install a
false Pope. [This plan was abandoned when exposed, therefore, we will
edit out references to it from this document.]

Attempts to discredit Marian
Apparitions(2)

The basic tactic is to expose the 1917
events at Fátima as
fraud or
error since Fátima is the: (1)
Marian apparition best known world wide;
(2) Endorsed by Popes from Pius
XII to John Paul II; and is (3)
Apocalyptic in nature.

By the Grace of God, miguel de Portugal
exposed to key groups
worldwide
[ranging from: The Roman Curia down to the local levels and the press]
the following well hidden and carefully laid plans to achieve this
objective

Plan A

Make it appear that the Fátima Apparitions were the result
of visits of
extra terrestrials interested in our well being. This would explain all
supernatural events, including the Miracle of the Sun witnessed by over
70,000 people and well documented by the press. Books have been written
on this theme as well as sham television debates have been conducted in
Portugal.

Once this plan was publicly exposed, alternative plans had to be
implemented.

Plan B

Prove that the far reaching press reports made of the Miracle of
the
Sun (October 13, 1917), which is a concrete historical fact and may be
found in many press and library files, was a ploy set up by the
Catholic Clergy and the Portuguese Press to manipulate the faithful.

With most witnesses already dead and the last visionary, Sister
Lucia, isolated from the world in a Carmelite Cloister, it would be
easy to discredit Fátima completely as well as all the Popes
that
believed in its reality; most specially, H.H. John Paul II. Once this plan was also publicly
exposed, another action had to be taken.

A Hypothesis - (Of Their Third Plan)

The whole world needs to be convinced
that the Fátima
prophecies have
been fulfilled and that all is well now. This could effectively be
achieved if: (a) Sister Lucia
were to be quoted as attesting to that
fact; and (b) Pope John Paul II
were to be also quoted making a similar
pronouncement in the midst of apparent doctrinal errors. Then...

A Thesis - (Of Their Third Plan)

When the alleged fulfillment of the
prophecies, which appear to be
certified by Sister Lucia, through recent interviews, and H.H. John
Paul II, (3)
are proven false by devastating world events obvious to all, then, with
one stroke: (1) Fátima
and all Marian Apparitions are discredited; (2)
The significance of the Virgin Mary is discredited; and (3) John Paul
II, and all his magnificent work to restore The Church, is discredited.

Confirmation

Consider These Political and Social
Hard Facts

1. Peace, at a universal
level, has never been so
absent in the
history of the world. Whatever little "peace" we live in today is only
a media orchestrated illusion. For example: Whomever may think that we
are at new levels of peace in the Middle East is out of touch with
reality. The Middle East has never been so potentially explosive since
the establishment of the state of Israel.

While this document is being prepared
[December 1995]
the Caucasian republics of the Russian Federation are about to go up in
smoke because they challenge to Moscow's authority. {"If my requests
are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace;"}

2. The U.S.S.R. is no longer
officially in existence, yet,
communism is progressing well worldwide and actually being chosen
through the electoral process over the neo-capitalism that replaced the
system officially dismantled in the post U.S.S.R period. {"The Holy
Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she will be converted,..."}

"Conversion", in any theological
context refers to a
"change of heart". It is safe to assume that our Lady meant a
"conversion" from the atheistic system in existence, communism, to a
system that would be God centered. Savage capitalism and galloping
consumerism, where "God" is now "Unbridled Materialism" cannot be
considered the goal that our Lady had when She spoke of the
"conversion" of Russia.

Irrefutable, concrete and bloody evidence prove that:

a.
There is no
peace. The situation is actually worse than before.b. The spread of Communism is
progressing well and now gaining power
through the electoral process as a desperate move of the citizenry.c. Russia has not been
converted by any theological terms, definitions and considerations.

The "Varcare la Soglia della
Speranza" Connection

In Chapter 20 (pp. ), which addresses the apparent dissolution of
the
U.S.S.R. or "the fall of communism", H.H. John Paul is quoted as
having written:

And what about the three
Portuguese children of
Fátima[...] who
heard 'Russia will be converted' and 'In the end, my Heart will
triumph'?

"They could not have invented such
predictions[..]. And
nonetheless, exactly all that they had announced has occurred. (Item
AA)

Further, he is quoted as having
written:

Therefore, it would be very
easy to say that Divine
Providence
caused the communism to fall[...] But it fell by itself, because of its
own internal weakness." (Item BB)

Conclusions

1. Is there any coherence between Item
AA and the
actual socio-political conditions in the world?

2. Is there any coherence between Item
BB and what Item
AA implies?

3. If Item BB
is a fact, why did God consider necessary to give us the messages in
Fátima?

4. Is the all encompassing reality of
Divine Providence being
negated? ["...it fell by itself..."] or...

5. Are we [in 1995] witnessing a sign
of the plot, denounced by
the
book editor Mr. Vittorio Messori, to force the resignation of the Holy
Father? [Interview with Mr.
Messori published in the Italian newspaper
"Il Messaggero" and quoted by the Portuguese newspaper "O Dia" in its
November 3, 1994, edition.]

Epilogue

Before reading "Varcare la Soglia della
Speranza", Divine Providence
had led miguel de Portugal to read the following documents from the
hand of John Paul II:

b. A book with all the
illuminating public statements made by H.H. John Paul II during his
visit to Spain in 1982.

c. The full text of the
Encyclical Veritatis Splendor.

There is perfect internal coherence in
each of the above documents,
coherence among them, coherence with the world in action and coherence
with all the information granted to miguel of Portugal by Heaven, past,
present and future.

We could not make the same statement
regarding our
experience with the contents of "Varcare la soglia della Speranza".
Compared to the texts in items (a),
(b) and (c), "Varcare...." Is
without luster and all encompassing coherence.

Point to Ponder

Are we facing a similar situation to the
one H.H. Paul VI found
himself
in regarding artificial means of birth control when "The Vatican"
issued a statement that the use of artificial birth control, a
resounding doctrinal error, would be approved soon?

If the situation we find in "Varcare..."
is a similar one, there is
not
sufficient time left to issue a far reaching correcting statement and,
like in the above cited parallel, it would be next to impossible for
man to reverse the saturation effect achieved by the blanketing method
used in the publishing of this book.

However, all is possible for God, and He
shall soon speak in
unmistakable terms.

Be at peace, all is well. Even he, who
"would not serve", must
serve.
Almighty God, the uncreated Creator is above all and nothing is
impossible for Him. Do your part and He will surely do His. This
eternal reality is always manifested in proportion to the strength of
your faith.
